Hard to face an end Forced to choose a friend Time flies, binds tie Backed into a corner again Lines in conversations Words to rearrange Heavy complications Dreams that feel so strange So strange Give me one good reason not to runaway I have some time to wait Is it a waste Give me one good reason to make me stay Cause I'm afraid It's a waste Hard to know the truth Or what to even do Wrong turn, bridge burned Things go up in smoke to soon Lines in conversations Words to rearrange Heavy complications Dreams that feel so strange So strange Give me one good reason not to runaway I have some time to wait Is it a waste Give me one good reason to make me stay Cause I'm afraid It's a waste Have you any words to say That aren't a waste

Where did the time go What did the winds blow away How could it go slow And we still don't know How it could end up this way Change begins Like a breath on the wind Looking back It can never be the same All we've been Is a breath on the wind We can never be We can never be the same Hold me now for the last time And let's just pretend We are the end Where did it all go How could we not know It would blow away How could we waste time And say it's all fine And let it all end up this way Change begins Like a breath on the wind Looking back It can never be the same All we've been Is a breath on the wind We can never be We can never be the same We can never be the same

I've been down So deep Tripping All over my feet Playing with the devil And singing his song And I admit That pull is still strong But there ain't no going down that road again Cause I'm alive And I've been changed Told myself I'd never be the same Still it ain't been perfect If I was keeping score And I may still go back To that drawing board But there ain't no going down that road again Time and time and time again I slid back down But oh this time is my time It's bound to be my time around Cause I seen the bridge To another place And I'm gonna cross Gonna leave this race And there ain't no going down that road again No there ain't no going down that old road again

Feeling the changes Smack in the face Time rearranges What can I say How did it go down You never grow up Here for a new round Man what the f*** Don't tell me Don't tell me that It's OK It won't be It won't be It' won't be the same Looking through shadows Feeling the bite Down in the hallows Drown in the night Giving up purpose Going nowhere Guess it could be worse But nobody cares Don't tell me Don't tell me that It's OK It won't be It won't be It' won't be the same Don't tell me Don't tell me that Cause it's not OK It won't be It won't be better Cause you're always the same And it's not OK

No surprise You stopped talking to me No surprise You won't stop looking through me Bit of a shame Not taking the blame You want dirty secrets Let's not go there Let's not go there Let's not go there now Don't you know that Don't you know that Don't you know that's how It ends No regret No place for all that No connect No one stays on the track Give it a rest If this is a test We're failing badly Let's not go there Let's not go there Let's not go there now Don't you know that Don't you know that Don't you know that's how Let's not go there Let's not go there Let's not go there now Don't you know that Don't you know that Don't you know that's how It ends This is how it ends

What you say I got to have that What you do I got to have that Don't look away come and play Everything I've seen I got to have that Baby, come and see me Maybe, you could thrill me Hey Hey I got to have that How you look I got to have that How you move I got to have When it feels this way It's time to play Everything you do I got to have that Baby, come and see me Maybe, you could thrill me Baby, come and see me Maybe, you could thrill me Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey I got to have that

The sky is falling, falling And I'm out out here watching, watching How...it goes down As it falls...all around The world is burning, burning And I'm still so undiscerning As..it goes down As it burns...to the ground The night is calling, calling Stars are falling, falling Down...to the ground Hitting hard...all around Air is cooling, cooling And life is enduring enduring Somehow...it goes down And then comes...back around

I feel faint Can't concentrate Maybe it's fate And it's way too late, but I'll Keep going Keep rowing Can't get back To where it started anyway Watch my step Wade through the depths Find new precepts Try to catch my breath, and Keep going Keep rowing Can't get back To where it started anyway All this time out here spinning, spinning, spinning Is there any ending It's so unforgiving All these things out here pushing, pushing, pushing Not really losing Not really winning Keep going Keep rowing Can't get back To where it started anyway Keep going Keep rowing Can't get back To where it started anyway

No one ever sad it was easy No one ever said You could have it all Oh, oh, oh, but keep on tryin Just keep on tryin For your sake No one ever said it would happen No one ever said It would go your way Oh oh oh, but keep on tryin Just keep on tryin For your sake Don't give up your dream Oh, oh, oh, but keep on tryin Just keep on tryin Keep on tryin For your sake Oh, oh, oh, but keep on tryin Keep on tryin Keep on tryin For your sake
12.
Well here we go again Not sure where we've been Stretching ourselves thin But we keep on going Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty And i's getting rough Oh but we're super tough Even though we've had enough We keep on going Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty Our kind don't give up easy Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty Running on empty

I wanna bathe in the moonlight Have the stars rain down on me Why Shouldn't I Feel This way How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? I wanna play with an angel Have her light wash over me Why Shouldn't I Feel This way How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel? How does it feel?

Surrender 04:16
Stars out tonight Surrender Moon shining bright Surrender Take me Out of the darkness Break free To the other side It's time To surrender Lightning strikes Surrender Dark skies ignite Surrender Take me Out of the darkness Break free To the other side It's time To surrender Mountains fall into the ocean Deep commotion Showing no emotion The world goes round Law of motion Nothing broken Is that self-devotion Surrender Take me Out of the darkness Break free To the other side It's time To surrender So Take me Out of the darkness Break free To the other side It's time To surrender Surrender Surrender

about

Solo Album Month, a time for artists to challenge themselves and create something uniquely theirs. Embracing this spirit, I embarked on a thrilling musical journey, resulting in the creation of "This One November." This album is a vibrant tapestry of sound, a collection of songs that were not just written but also recorded within the whirlwind of a single month. It's an eclectic mix that defies traditional boundaries, seamlessly weaving together various styles from the energetic beats of rock, the delicate melodies of folk, to the groovy rhythms of funk. Each track is a reflection of my personal taste and passion for music, making "This One November" more than just an album; it's a musical adventure a kaleidoscope of my musical inclinations.

The creation of this album was a collaborative effort, and it wouldn't have been possible without the incredible talent and support of Helen Robertson. Her mastery of the guitar and bass breathes life into each song, adding a layer of richness and depth that elevates the album to new heights. When challenges arose, particularly when my own fretting hand faltered, Helen was there, a true friend and a remarkable musician, ready to lend her skills. Her contribution is not just in the notes that resonate from the strings but in the spirit of camaraderie and dedication that she brought to the project. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Helen for her indispensable role in bringing "This One November" to life.
